Tired

I find myself, on this cold, dank night, wishing like hell for a break from all the proverbial bullshit. Whether it's drama in the department or a handful too many revisions to do on a project that was ultimately a lark, I'm just not in the mood for all the obligations. It's days like these that drive me to wish I could get away from here. And talk to no one.

I'm fine. It's late. I needed to vent. I'll get up, teach two classes in the morning, and then lock myself away to work on my thesis and a presentation for the duration of the weekend.

Graduation is in May. Graduation is in May. Graduation is in May. Graduation is in May. Graduation is in May. Graduation is in May. Graduation is in May. Graduation is in May.

I have no doubt that you can do this. Think what a sense of accomplishment you'll feel in four months! We're all here for you, so vent away. And maybe reward yourself with something really special on the first of each month until you graduate. It might help mark the passage and help make the goal feel more attainable. During Amy & Rachel's last semesters of undergrad school, I sent them each a surprise gift at the beginning of each month just to give them a little boost of encouragement. Hang in there!
